WASHINGTON (AP) House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi isnt ruling out pushing for upper-income earners to pay more even after the fiscal cliff deal that raised their taxes.

She tells CBSFace the Nation that Im saying thats not off the table. The California Democrats isnt getting into specifics but she does discuss changes to tax law that might involve deductions and other breaks.

The former House speaker also says the current Republican Party isnt the Grand Old Party that did so many things for America that commanded so much respect. She says the country needs a strong GOP but she describes the current party as a really over-the-edge crowd thats dominated by an element of anti-government ideologues committed to opposing President Barack Obama.
